I liked all the bird silhouettes and also the pillows with colors so I just combined the two. To see the inspiration pieces just click on the site Steph has linked here in the IC challenge.
-After embossing with the Cuttlebug I used Prismacolor pencils and baby oil to color the grass and bird.
-The flowers were added by doing some simple masking with sticky notes, using the stamp positioner and inking up the rubber with markers.
-I used a ribbon punch from Marvy to loop the ribbon through and add the brad and flowers after punching a 1/16” hole then taped the end to the back.
-The flowers were also colored with the pencils and sculpted using a metal ball stylus.
Flower image can be found at Cornish Heritage Farms. in a Silhouette Blooms set or as a single image.

Boy, did you ever work out the CB folder!! I ended up using the same folder but took the lazy way out (lol)! Like the added flowers which really finishes it off nicely!
